MOUNT VERNON - The Brewton-Parker College softball team swept a doubleheader
Friday at Wesleyan College in Macon, 9-1 and 5-4, before the Lady Barons won
four out of five games and placed second in the Albany State University
Invitational Tournament on Saturday.

Junior right-hander Kelly Hamilton scored both victories against Wesleyan, the
first as the starter and the second in relief of sophomore Aislyn MacLeod.

The Lady Barons opened the Albany State tournament with a 9-1 win over Tuskegee
University (Ala.), then edged Claflin University (S.C.) 3-2. After scoring a
12-1 win over Paine College, Brewton-Parker took a 10-2 victory over Fort Valley
State University.

The Lady Barons' only setback was to Benedict College (S.C.) 9-6 in their
tourney finale. The 4-1 run lifted Brewton-Parker at 29-10 on the season.

Senior right-hander Lyndsay Gomme (9-4) took the pitching victories against
Tuskegee and Fort Valley State, while Hamilton (11-5) was the winner against
Claflin and freshman Emily Woodard (4-0) took the victory against Paine.
Freshman Rachael Harper (2-1) was dealt the loss against Benedict.

"Everyone played a huge part in getting us six wins over the weekend," said
Bryant, whose team began the week with a pair of 2-1 defeats to Faulkner
University in Montgomery, Ala., in Georgia-Alabama-Carolina Conference play on
March 31.

The first game was in eight innings, with the Lady Eagles rallying after
Brewton-Parker had scored the game's first run in the top of the eighth.

The Lady Barons (5-7 conference) had their GACC home doubleheader Tuesday
against Faulkner postponed to April 19.

Brewton-Parker takes to the road for conference twin bills Friday at Southern
Wesleyan University in Central, S.C., and Saturday at NAIA No. 19 ranked North
Georgia College and State University in Dahlonega.

The Lady Barons continue their GACC schedule with a doubleheader Tuesday, April
15, at Georgia Southwestern State University in Americus and plays Wesleyan at
home April 17 in a 2 p.m. twin bill.
